It's the scope of DQVII which might be one of the most JRPGs ever made melded with the aesthetic of DQVIII + a job system. The only thing I wish it had was tension system because I really liked that in 8 but I bet it probably wouldn't work with a job system.

the most what JRPGs ever made. anyways you've sold me. i hope Walmart carries it cause GameStop is closed

Just finished up the first island. Judging from the amount of pillars in the Assembly Room, I think this game is going to be long.. Can't be quite sure though

Me too. Normally I don't like this type of episodic story pacing but this game is just so charming I can't help but love it

I got a healslime heart and I can turn one of my party members into a healslime. Also I love the travelers tablet stuff, it's nice to just do some story free dungeon crawling in between the narrative arcs on each island. I haven't found the guy who runs the monster meadows though so I can start generating my own.

The only one of these mechanics that I'm familiar with is the tablet thing and it pwns. All that other poo poo sounds epic as hell too. This game is ftw

Heaps up rediscover: Greenthumb Gardens, which the island immediately after the robot castle, is probably the only part of the game I didn't like and can get kind of frustating, so, stay strong.

Ya so far I'm just dealing with this gently caress tard and his realtionship problems

Lol that's not really necessary because a) the game isn't that difficult and b) you can grind infinite seeds later if you want

Ya after the first reset I realized that the time vs reward ratio was garbage but then i got 3 +3 strength rolls in a row so i got the benefits anyway.

cool/morbid easter egg i found: spoilers for the island right before alltrade abbey after kiefer leaves the party to hang out with the roamers, when you go to the island in the present theres a gravestone in the mountain pass that says here lies the dancer of the roamers or w/e and her faithful guardian aka kiefer.

Is it not laggy for you? It feels like a few frames of lag with every single menu input to me. I'm not managing 4 characters with 30 pages of skills with that kind of crappy menu.

theres a little lag but its not enough to make me not want to control my own party members like some kind of hosed up retard. it is annoying though
